Another fantastic year of Cops and Kids with the Monmouth Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 265. Thanks for the help from the Warren County Sheriff’s Department along with Warren County Animal Control. All the volunteers make this program so much easier. This event wouldn’t be possible without the generous donations from our community!

Special thanks to Pizza Hut for donating all the pizzas 🍕. Thanks to Circle K for donating the cookies 🍪 and hot cocoa. Thanks to Warren County Transportation for the use of the bus 🚌. Thanks to People’s Do It Center to the use of tables and chairs 🪑. Finally thanks to Wal-Mart for taking care of us and making it a wonderful shopping experience! Santa 🧑‍🎄 just happen to stop by also!

Lots of smiles were seen today by both kids and cops! That’s what it’s all about! 🧑‍🎄 🎄 👮 🚔

Greetings from the Monmouth Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 265. Our annual fundraising letter will be hitting mailboxes starting tomorrow. I have attached a copy that many will see. Our fundraising efforts cover three main events, including Power for Seniors (assisting senior citizens with utility bills and a meal), Cops and Kids at Christmas (Shop with a Cop), and Cops and Bobbers (fishing derby).

You can donate by either receiving a letter and mailing it back or by bringing it by the police department. If you don’t receive a letter and want to donate, feel free to drop it off at the police department (500 South Main) or call 309-734-8383, and a friendly officer will be more than happy to come grab it and stay for a short visit.

These events wouldn’t be what they are without the help from the generous donations we receive from our community.

Thank you,
Lodge #265.
